[Hidden-tech] domain purchase at expiration

[Rob Laporte]

I’m curious who in the firm caused the disappointment. As they say, you don’t hire a hospital but a surgeon. I’ve worked with Larry Graves there for about 3 years, and I’ve found him very intelligent and effective. Of course, as with doctors, sometimes a disease can’t be cured.

I’m not the one at my firm who resolved it favorably, within a 45(?) day recapture window I believe, but my point is that if such registrars, by some wild fluke, just happen to use only for domain expiration warnings email servers with dirty IP addresses that are likely to go to spam folders or be blocked by a web host, well then someone stands to gain profit from a percentage of desperate past owners. So checking all one’s (clients’) domain expiration dates and email recipients seems one of the many things for which a recurring calendar reminder makes sense.
